And so managers are feeling social pressure to hire under qualified Asians as well? I must not be up to date on the latest culture war talking points, because I thought Asians were underrepresented.

Yeah, if they themselves are asian. One of the most prevalent complaints about Indian hiring managers in the silicon valley tech industry is that they preferentially hire Indians and push out non-Indians to a tremendous degree, and are often helping Indian hires commit pretty blatant credential fraud.
